Chapter 117 My sword is not at a disadvantage
The first person from the Kings to react was Lu Yuanzhi.

When he saw Nowitzki running quickly toward the baseline, he felt something was wrong.

This scene is so familiar!

He and Turkoglu have done a lot of fast serving.

"Retreat!" Lu Yuanzhi shouted to his teammates to retreat while sprinting towards his own basket.

When he returned to the basket, Nash had already rushed into the penalty area with the ball, and Bobby Jackson was chasing after him.

Lu Yuanzhi raised his hands and guarded the basket.

After Nash rushed to the basket with Bobby Jackson, he did not take off, but threw the ball back, and Finley followed up to get the basketball.

Finley received the ball, jumped up and tried to hit the basket.

Lu Yuanzhi followed suit, with his two long arms covering the sky and the sun, and the two confronted in the air. Finley didn't take advantage of it, and threw the ball back again in the air.

Outside the three-point line, Nowitzki, who was following up, was already in position, received the basketball, and was ready to fire from outside the three-point line.

Bobby Jackson and Webb jumped in together.

Nowitzki sent the ball to the right corner lightly. Nash, who had just rushed to the basket, had come back from the baseline and waited there.

Nobody can defend Nash anymore.

Nash received the ball, made no adjustments, and shot directly.

The ball drew a beautiful arc in the air and got into the net.

78: 79!

The Mavericks took the lead for the first time in the game.

Back to the Kings offense, Bobby Jackson missed an open shot with a bad touch, and the Mavericks launched a 5-man fast break again.

The 5 people on the Mavericks field are really flexible!
This time, Pollard and Webber defended back to the inside, but after several internal and external passes, the Mavericks took advantage of the Kings' unstable position and hit a three-pointer from Dirk Nowitzki who came out of the bag.

78: 82!

The Mavericks extended their lead.

The fans in the audience erupted into cheers like a tsunami!

These two attacks are so beautiful and so refreshing!

The Mavericks, who had been suppressed by the Kings throughout the game, finally began to turn around in the fourth quarter.

Something was wrong with Adelman. Isn't this fast break routine the same fast break three-pointer the Kings played before?
Good old Nelson, can you copy this?
Nash: Fast break three-pointer, 7-second offense, why does it always feel familiar?

Old Nelson did not propose the concept of 7-second offense. He just thought that the three-point tactics used by the Kings during the fast break were very useful for reference.

Of course, the Mavericks' ability to attack the basket is not particularly strong. The Kings have a tall forward like Lu Yuanzhi who can attack. Who does the Mavericks have?

It would be better to be more thorough and use breaking into the paint to attack the basket as a cover to create a better shooting environment for outside players.

Old Nelson is still Old Nelson, always able to arrange tactics in an eclectic way.

No common sense, no old habits, can't stop his pursuit of innovation!
The Kings once again scored 2 points steadily from Weber.

Najera's defensive enthusiasm is good, but against a good inside player like Weber, his defense is indeed a bit lacking.

But fortunately, Nelson doesn't expect Najera to freeze Webber. He just needs someone to defend Webber, cause some difficulties for Webber, and free Nowitzki.

This time the Kings retreated quickly, and the Mavericks were forced to drop their positions.

But this time it is even more unreasonable. All five of the Mavericks have the ability to shoot from outside the three-point line. Even Najera still has a certain ability to open the three-point line.

The Mavericks simply stopped posting in the low post and started a dazzling combination in the high post.

As for the low position, it is left to Najera, Nash, and Van Exel to attack.

Beat Princeton even more than Princeton!
After several breakthroughs to score the ball, and then break through and score the ball again, the Kings' defense was penetrated again. Pollard, who was not so nimble on his feet, was simply a liability in defense.

In the end, the Mavericks forced a three-pointer by Van Exel against Bobby Jackson's defense from beyond the three-point line.

80: 85!

The Mavericks hit a 9:4 spurt!

The lead came to 5 points.

The fans in the audience also saw the hope of victory, and the cheers and cheers became louder and louder.

Nowitzki and Finley fought for almost the whole game, but they were also very excited at this time, and even the fatigue was not so strong.

"beep-"

Forced and helpless, the Kings could only call a timeout to interrupt the Mavericks' rising momentum and find a solution by the way.

Several players were a little confused by the beating and sat on the bench without saying a word.

The coaching staff discussed it and came to the players.

"Guys," Adelman began speaking with a tactical board in hand, "the opponent's fierce offense disrupted your rhythm, didn't it?"

The Kings players raised their heads in amazement, not knowing what kind of medicine Adelman was selling in his gourd.

But what Adelman did next surprised everyone even more!
He threw the tactical board directly to the ground, "There are no more tactics. From now on, it's just a battle for points!"

"As long as we score 6 points more than the Mavericks before the end of the game, we will win!"

The Kings players looked a little flustered after being beaten by the Mavericks, but they gradually returned to normal at this time.

Yes, isn't it just about who can score more points in the next game?

Your Mavericks can break the boat, give up all defenses, and put on this ghost lineup. Is it true that our Kings are obsessed with trying to figure out a solution?
Think shit!
Since you want to fight against us, then come fight!
Your sword is sharp, but my sword is not bad!

"GO! GO! GO!"

"Isn't it just to grab points? Kill them!"

The morale of the players was instantly restored, and Adelman, who had just drank a lot of chicken soup, pulled Bibby and Bobby Jackson aside.

"Run, even if there is no chance to attack, we must quickly advance to the opponent's half," Adelman looked at Dirk Nowitzki and Finley who were panting heavily on the other side, and continued, "The main force on the opposite side has hardly rested. They won't last long!"

"Bring up the rhythm, don't be afraid of mistakes, and never let them retreat comfortably!"

Bibby and Bobby Jackson nodded and followed their teammates back onto the court.

The Kings have also changed their personnel. Now there are Webber, Turkoglu, Lu Yuanzhi, Bobby Jackson and Bibby on the field. This is their strongest attacking lineup.

Everyone has outside shooting ability, and Webb, Lu Yuanzhi and Bobby Jackson are the three strongest players in the Kings team at attacking the basket.

Adelman is not as extreme as Nelson, putting all his chips on outside shooting.

He believes more in the success rate of inside attacks!

You make a three-pointer, I score two baskets, and I earn one point.

Adelman can still do this simple math problem.
